James Savoy

James was a loyal Attinger's right-hand man whom held the grudge
against Cybertronians, either the good ones (mostly Autobots and Trainbots) and the
evil one (mostly Decepticons and Deceptitrains). Perhaps since the death of his sister in
Las Pegasus at the hands of Sentinel Prime, Timothy, and Decepticon & Deceptitrain army, it was
implied that he has went insane since then. This was due to her death
has drove him wrathful, ruthless and highly sadistic, taking enjoyment
out of inflicting the suffering and pain toward the helpless
Cybertronians and humans alike like he did to Socket and Nyx (which
forced the Optimus Prime And Thomas out of their hiding). Even before his death,
James himself had
been twisted into somewhat thinking that Nyx, along with her Autobot and Trainbot
allies and her family, mocking him over his sister's death as he
went on the blind fury with his knife to stab Nyx, (but then it turned out to Peterson in disguise.) As the real Nyx lead him to his fate.

This might the reason why Attinger appointed him as his
right-hand man, though his homicidal wrath eventually put into an end at
the hands of The JKSH and Nyx.
